摘要:
A method for displaying a user interface on an electronic device is described. The method includes presenting a user interface. The user interface includes a coordinate system. The coordinate system corresponds to physical coordinates based on sensor data. The method also includes providing a sector selection feature that allows selection of at least one sector of the coordinate system. The method further includes providing a sector editing feature that allows editing the at least one sector.

Systems and methods are disclosed for processing information associated with monitoring persons/devices and weapon fire location information. In one exemplary implementation, a weapon fire location system is used to characterize and locate impulsive events and these locations are correlated with the positions of monitoring persons or devices, such as monitoring anklets placed on offenders or other persons of interest. Further, various information can be plotted on map, display, or for other graphical output to assist in the process of handling a weapon fire event. For example, when a monitoring device, whose position can be provided by GPS or alternate methods is found nearby a gunshot location, then associated graphical information can be presented on the output of the weapon fire location system or an associated display used by those monitoring the offenders.

A method of obtaining an acoustic echo signal by a sonar apparatus (receiver array 100, 101). The method comprises measuring phases and magnitudes of at least one predetermined acoustic calibration signal received from a plurality of respective directions 109 by the sonar apparatus; determining a complex directional response from the measured phases and magnitudes; receiving an acoustic echo signal; compensating the received acoustic echo signal for the determined complex directional response.

摘要:
A folded Sagnac fiber optic sensor array uses a common delay path to reduce distributed pickup in downlead fibers. The sensor array is used to detect perturbations (e.g., acoustic waves in water). By basing the folded Sagnac sensor array on operating principles similar to the Sagnac interferometer the sensor array has a stable bias point, has reduced phase noise, and allows a broadband signal source to be used rather than requiring a more expensive narrowline laser. A large number of sensors can be multiplexed into the architecture of the sensor array. In one particularly preferred embodiment, the sensor array is configured with couplers and amplifiers selected to direct substantially equal portions of an input light signal to each sensor in the array. In another particularly preferred embodiment, first and second delay paths are provided for light at first and second wavelengths to increase the dynamic range of the sensors.

A folded Sagnac fiber optic acoustic sensor array operates in a manner similar to a Sagnac interferometer but uses a common delay path to reduce distributed pickup in downlead fibers. The fiber optic acoustic sensor array is used to detect acoustic waves in water. By basing the folded Sagnac sensor array on operating principles similar to the Sagnac interferometer rather than basing the array on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, the sensor array has a stable bias point, has reduced phase noise, and allows a broadband signal source to be used rather than requiring a more expensive narrowline laser. A large number of acoustic sensors can be multiplexed into the architecture of the folded Sagnac fiber optic acoustic array.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for determining directionality of acoustic signals arriving from an acoustic source is disclosed. A plurality of reflectors for modifying the acoustic signals and a transducer located proximate to the reflectors is used. A notch detector detects and identifies spectral notches in the modified acoustic signals. A device then determines the direction of the acoustic source. In one embodiment, a microphone system capable of detecting three-dimensional sound is provided. The microphone system comprises an elliptical-shaped microphone enhancer having at least two reflectors located different distances apart from a microphone located in the center of the ellipse. The reflectors have asymmetric ridges which cause interference patterns in the signals received by the microphone, conceptually analogous to the patterns generated by the pinnae of the human ear.

A frequency division, energy comparison, source detection signal processing system which decomposes a wide-band signal into a plurality of narrow frequency band components, generates the energy envelope of each of those narrow band components, determines the envelope correlation coefficients, and detects the presence of a source contributing to the wide-band signal from the correlation coefficients.
摘要:
A frequency division, energy comparison processing system which decomposes a wide-band signal into a plurality of narrow frequency band components, generates the energy envelope of each of those narrow band components, and compares a function of each energy envelope with the same function of each of the other energy envelopes to obtain a pattern of the function comparisons indicative of at least one of the sources contributing to the wide-band signal.
